I had the same issue and used the information from the thread to install CW which was the best thing I could do as it worked great. It explains how to install clockwork into the NVFlash image..

From the post located here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=861950

"An additional suggestion if you also want to tack on bekit's clockworkmod recovery versus standard recovery: http://xdaforums.com/show...3&postcount=17"

The only difference is that I changed the line to say recovery.img as opposed to clockwordmod.img since that is what was in the clockwork mod zip that I downloaded.
[G Tablet General] jbrawley1:
hahaha thanks >.>

I'm frustrated and just did this...

so didn't do my reading, :-p and didnt back up my SD card on my computer.

It's all good though I have all the roms still downloaded to my compture and ill redownload all my apps.

I hope this works, thanks so much for all the help!!! thebadfrog!!

What's the story on the app? Is it advisable to use it or not? Im running cm 7 btw.

no
[EVO 4G General] willy900wonka:
Yes.

It was more critical on the Hero, where memory was more limited.

On the EVO, in this less limited setup. I still use it. It eliminates any lag in loading newly selected apps. It does cause Android OS to exercise its memory loading algorithm since all autokiller memory .. does is load different values for the OS to implement.
[EVO 4G General] Jason Black:
See thats my issue because sometimes it kills apps that are still active. Like twitter. It kills it and then i have to login again. It just changes the way android handles background apps.

But im beginning to suspect that it messes with the kernels. Hence i deleted it and enabled the long press to kill app on cm 7.

If a background app isnt using the cpu and you have available memory what's the point of killing an app?

I was struggling with memory hence i used it, but now i just kill them myself.

RAM not used is wasted memory. You really do not need it if you are on a 2.2+ ROM. Memory management is great on Android now.

Except that Autokiller isn't a "task killer" per se. Not in the sense that they're typically thought of anyway. It allows you to adjust the threshold at which Android's built-in method kills apps. It's a tiered system. You can also adjust them with adb or terminal, but this basically provides a simpler GUI for achieving the same results. I use Autokiller, and it does seem to help speed things up a bit.
[EVO 4G General] leebo:
Say what you will, but my rooted EVO running 2.2 slows down at times and I open Task Killer only to find a dozen apps running, most of which I had not been using. After killing these apps, my phone is back to it's normal speed. I am not convinced 2.2 closes apps any better than 2.1 did.
[EVO 4G General] Jason Black:
That's what im saying too lol. It does its job but it leaves lots of apps running.

[EVO 4G General] live2ride96:
And that's fine. Nobody needs to convince you otherwise. You have every right to kill apps whenever you want. Nobody's stopping you. I wouldn't recommend it, but I'm not going to come to your house and stop you. LOL.

Those dozen apps aren't "running". Not in the foreground anyway. Android has a tiered system to killing apps. A hierarchy if you will. Apps run in the background, setting themselves up for when they are "called upon", sort of like a cache. OK, not quite, but I said sort of :D . By killing those off, and then having them start again on their own, it actually uses more battery, when leaving them dormant in the background doesn't really harm anything.

I'm oversimplifying it here for the sake of easy digestion. Again, I'm not here to "convince" you, as choice is a good thing. But knowledge before making that choice is make that choice better. Read up on how Android works. It's quite interesting.

[EVO 4G General] ronnienyc:
Guess what. After trying about 10 custom roms (2.2 and 2.3) the past several months and experiencing various issues with each one of them, I tried stock rooted 2.2 and removed some annoying apps, and it is great. Everything works (4g, 3g...) Gmail works as promised (no mails stuck in outbox like I get with the most recent Fresh) signal is strong, the camera focuses properly, and the battery actually lasts LONGER than it does with CM7, SavageMod, Sprint Lovers, etc. I know the customs are all tweaked up, but the stock rooted is 0% slower in terms of everyday use. (I do not use test bench scores because they have little bearing on what the phone actually feels like to use.)

Stock is better in many ways than any of the customs I have tried. No joke.(Once some of the Sprint junk has been removed of course.)

Try it for yourself.

Just sayin'.

[EVO 4G General] locoboi187:
I personally am not a fan of Sense anymore after Salvage. It's basically pure Gingerbread 2.3 with no extra added junk EXCEPT 4G WiMax. Runs smooth as butter, and couldn't ask for anything else. Bugless too, not counting HDMI which no one uses...
[EVO 4G General] ncfastls1:
Have you tried Myn's Warm TwoPointTwo? In my experience it is the most stable Sense rom, while also being extremely fast and great on battery life. I get anywhere from 30-16 hours depending on how much I use it and what I'm doing/how my reception is. Lots of eye candy too. Not sure what errors you have been encountering..but everything works as it should with Myn's. Have you tried custom kernels? Netarchy's kernel has given me the best battery life and performance, I have been using setcpu with the smartass governor. On a side note I have been using Salvage Mod since wimax was added and it's freaking awesome!

113 posts, a member here for a year, and you post this non-sense in the development section.

That alone tells me you have no idea what you are doing so why the heck would I take advice from you.
[EVO 4G General] vbetts:
Stock evo really isn't all that bad. I would get a better optimized kernel instead of the stock kernel, but that's about it. I run EchoHD on mine for now, since I haven't had any issues with it with Revol, but I mess around with gingerbread and CM7 with it from time to time. CM7 I easily have nice battery life in, but I can't use it with my network sadly. =\
[EVO 4G General] Mr.37:
I was in the same situation ..... I think the problem is when You flash a new ROM you should give it some time to settle down. I use to install all the available MODS and themes plus 50 different apps right away ending up messing the whole system. Now I don't flash new fonts, tweaks, mods right away with a fresh ROM but then again it's just me, a novice user with very limited knowledge. I have been using FROST ROM for a month and it has been very stable ... although there are few new awesome looking ROMS just came out ( King's Ultra R2, Warm Z, Salvage MOD 1.0 etc ...) that are very tempting. I am to the verge of flashing a new one, it's just hard to pick one. After seeing all these insane ROMS who would go back to stock ... ! NOT ME.

[EVO 4G General] ronnienyc:
My experience with Myns was ok - used it for about a month. But it had battery issues, and more importantly it would randomly lose 3g connectivity for maybe 30-60 seconds at a time. Same problem with Fresh. This is terribly annoying if you are browsing web pages. You end up clicking on a link 20 times trying to get it to load properly.

I was most recently using CM7 and it works well except the battery drain is just silly. And I know I am not the only one with battery drain on CM7.

The thing is, it seems there are always drawbacks with the customs. Some of the drawbacks are deal breakers like losing 3g, or botching the gmail app.

So while the developers are doing some awesome work (much appreciated!) when I step back a few paces, I realize that I have not gained much in real world usability, and I have often sacrificed stability or functionality for some minor gains which are often not noticeable without the use if benchmark tests.
[EVO 4G General] jrotert:
I tend to agree with OP

I too have flashed many ROMS, and have also found best overall performance with a basically stock ROM. I say "basically stock," because I run RicSims 3.70 Turbo, which is supposedly mostly stock but with minor performance tweaks.

I run the stock HTC #15 Kernel included in ROM and, along with Seido 3500 Ext Batt, experience phenomenal battery life (see some of my other posts for results/screenshots).

I just recently tried a CM7 2.3 GB ROM w/ working WIMAX, and while everything worked perfectly (along with awesome Linpack and Quadrant scores), the battery life just wasn't there, so I went back to trusty Ricsims ROM (although I still have CM7 w/ WIMAX backed up via Nandroid, and can switch back and forth within 15 or 20 minutes, should I get the itch).

Since you posted this in the wrong section, I would make one suggestion to you. Just stop replying to this thread until it gets moved and let it die, or you are going to continue to get flamed. I have already tagged it to be moved to the correct section, and I am sure others have as well. Just please try to pay a little more attention next time before you post. I could flame you but I am not going to. Usually its understandable but NOT okay to post questions in the dev forums, but your original post is going to get ya alot of negativity, I am not really sure what the point of it was?

[EVO 4G General] teh roxxorz:
Honestly, "Mr. Yellow" has done what everyone else in this thread should have done, by kindly pointing out that the thread is okay, its great to share his experience, but he posted it in the wrong forum. So "Mr. Yellow" shouldn't be flamed. And if you flame the OP, you're honestly just as bad as to committing to this thread with nonsense.

Great statement OP regarding your set up, just please, next time, post threads of this manner in the general/q&a, as the development section is for developing roms, kernels and things of the such.
[EVO 4G General] JoeLithium:
There has been talk of general about not allowing the creation of a thread in development if the person has less than 20 posts.

I believe this topic is proof that that will not work. I see what Mr. Yellow is saying. He makes a point. This should not have gone here. The OP mentioned no question was asked. But there was also no development. That's what General is for.

These topics piss people like me and Mr. Yellow off. This section gets cluttered with all this and it doesn't stop. It's getting old.

[EVO 4G General] :
So, here is my question (maybe this needs to be in Q&A lulz.)

How many people have mod-alerted the OP (exclamation mark inside the triangle on the top right of each post) and asked that it be moved to General?

I typically do as soon as I see an off-topic post in an effort to quench the fire before it starts. Now, I know that moderators are busy but the lack of response hours later, days later, or never sends mixed messages to users. Threads don't get locked/moved, so one would assume that it is acceptable to post these kinds of threads even though there is a sticky stating otherwise.

Maybe it's not important, and letting the users sort it out is the correct response.

Anyway, do your part. Mod alert. At least you try.

[EVO 4G General] ronnienyc:
That is my thought exactly. Even the "development" threads are one post with links, and then 10,000 comments on the ROM which are not much different that my original comments were. Anyway, it is moved now, so y'all can relax ;-) (anyway how is my comment about developed ROMs not "development" related?

Seriously 99.9 percent of the comments in the dev section are comments or questions, not development. But hey, its fine with me.
[EVO 4G General] aimbdd:
They are comments on something that some one developed... the difference being their posts dont clutter up the dev thread. Can you imagine what it would be like if even 50% of users made a new thread like you did?

[EVO 4G General] CheesyNutz:
pass ill stick to my custom where everything works
[EVO 4G General] ronnienyc:
To clarify, all the customs I have tried have worked to some extent, but they each introduced their own weirdness. (such as terrible battery life, need to push power button multiple times to turn on the phone; disconnecting 3g, etc.

On the rooted stock 2.2, once the obviously stupid Sprint apps are removed, EVERYTHING works, battery life is as good or better than Savage, CM6, CM7, Myn's Warm, Azrael, Kings, etc., etc. And the rooted stock is not noticeably slower or less efficient than even the most tweaked out ROM in my experience. (benchmark tests notwithstanding.) So I am back to the basics and everything works again!

I know some people disagree with me, but for kicks you should flash the rooted stock and see what I am talking about. You will likely be surprised, as I was.

But again, I appreciate the vast choices we have for ROMs on the Evo, and all the work that goes into them.
[EVO 4G General] jstalford:
I would try that if I could stay on any one ROM long enough to actually test battery life. I think I've made it that long 4 times in the past month. I actually was on stock rooted earlier today and thought about it, but already switched back to Warm Z. I def have a problem.
[EVO 4G General] ronnienyc:
Jstalford, been there myself with the Evo, the Hero before that, the Blackberry Tour...;-)
[EVO 4G General] .psd:
Where can I find the official, 100% stock unmodified stock ROM? The ones I've found linked here on XDA are all changed one way or another, even minor tweaks. I've been looking for the true original for awhile...

Also I don't see you mentioning MikFroyo 4.5. I have had NOTHING not work with it, and he removes a ton of junk to make it more optimized. I then use Titanium Backup to uninstall about 40 more system apks or whatever they are, then Autorun Manager to disable about 30 more recievers.

I would really like to know where to find the true original stock 2.2 ROM, but I would also like Mik to release his non-beta 4.6 which is supposed to be stock optimized, and I really only trust Mik's optimizing.
[EVO 4G General] AbsolutZeroGI:
If you were smart and NANDROID BACKUP'D your stock rom before flashing that first Rom, then you should have your stock in your nandroid folder. if you didn't, well no biggie since your phone works.

The only way I've found is to unroot then root again...THEN NANDROID YOUR STOCK ROM so you can get to it whenever.

The OP isn't entirely wrong. When I rooted again, I flashed MS79723's SBC #15 v7 and removed bloatware and it was very smooth, very fast, decent battery life (when 4g was turned off when not using) and worked perfectly. That didn't stop me, however, from flashing (and making back-ups of) MikFroYo 4.5 and Konikub's Elite Series II because those are just as fast and smooth when you mod it right. I've been flashing all 3 back and forth over the last few days and outside of looks I can't really tell the difference.

Of course, that doesn't say anything about benchmark tests, which I'm sure are different...but I don't play games on my phone (except angry birds) so I don't really care. I have an X-Box 360 and a Nintendo DS for that. The performance is pretty good.

Oh, and my PRL on all 3 back-ups have the new PRL too.

CM7 was alright and I had CM6 on my G2 and MyTouch Slide, but for some reason the Sense roms seem to just work better for me than the CM roms do. Maybe it's just my phone or maybe I'm just not modding it right.
[EVO 4G General] ronnienyc:
On stock I unplugged almost 12 hours ago, and with fairly light use (a few emails, some web browsing...) , I am now at 74% battery power remaining! And this is with 4G turned on part of the time. I could not get that good battery life with any of the modded ROMs.
[EVO 4G General] donatom3:
By chance when you ran any of the custom roms did you ever wipe battery stats while fully charged let it drain till it shuts off on it's own then test battery life?
[EVO 4G General] ronnienyc:
I tried that many times.

Are you able to have 75% remaining after 12 hours?

In my experience, (for example) CM7 would drain 30-40 percent in 8 hours with zero usage while i slept.
[EVO 4G General] ronnienyc:
Just as a follow-up, I just woke up and today I am at 54% after 18 hours! (this includes 7 hours while I was sleeping though.)

Still - pretty amazing.

The only changes I made to stock were to delete some of the Sprint, HTC, and Google junk apps, and I am using SetCPU. Oh, and I removed the Facebook app, which eats battery. I find the fb touch web site to be just about as good, and way more efficient.
[EVO 4G General] Shadow666walker:
I'd have to almost completely agree with you. On my CDMA Hero I had nothing but problems with C7, Fresh, etc. I literally tried every one I could find that would work with it. The only one that ran flawlessly was a rooted stock rom. On to my new phone. Htc Evo 4g. Owned it for an hour and had a rooted stock rom loaded and running great. My girls hero ran even worse with C7 and even a rooted stock rom. It now has fresh loaded and it runs great. I guess it's nothing more than a trial and error sort of thing sorted by per rom, per phone, per user.

Long story short. Two out of my three phones fly with rooted stocks, but Fresh will get a shot on my Evo just because of how well it runs on my girls phone.
